When you see the word "of" it means multiply. So 25% of the budget = 25% * budget. Remember that a % is the number divided by 100 so 25% = 25/100.


Given a budget of b, to find the cost c (business space rent and utilities) the formula is:


c = (25/100)b


For this specific case c = (25/100)*118250.
